providing a digital platform and facilitating the administrative transmission of communication between the User and the responsible Merchant.
- Under no circumstances shall Flipkart be construed as a manufacturer, seller, co-seller, or guarantor of the food items, nor shall Flipkart assume any secondary, vicarious, or joint liability for the same. The Merchant shall remain the
sole, exclusive, and ultimate liable party for responding to, resolving, or defending any consumer grievances, and for satisfying any statutory compensation, refunds, punitive damages, or penalties mandated under the Consumer Protection Act,

cannot and does not guarantee that the concerned Merchants and Delivery Partners will perform or honour any transaction concluded on the Platform. Flipkart is not responsible for unsatisfactory or non-performance of services or damages or
delays as a result of products which are out of stock, unavailable or back ordered. Flipkart is only operating an online marketplace and assumes the role of facilitator, and does not at any point of time during any transaction between Buyer
and Merchant and/or Buyer and the Delivery Partners on the Platform come into or take possession of any of the products offered by Merchant or Delivery Partners.
